Given that I bought Destiny for my PS4 because of said exclusive content that was announced months before the game launched, I'm happy with it. It's hard for me to feel sorry for Xbox players when they are getting the next Tomb Raider as a timed exclusive and they want to bitch about not getting a strike or two.

My problem with your comment is that you say that we get tomb raider exclusives. Okay, but this isnt a tomb raider forum. Its a destiny forum, so we are in the right place to complain about destiny. You guys get access to a strike a year before it gets released to the public, for free. Not only that, but you already have a mars strike that we cant play yet. You get 2 strikes more than us? Thats worthy of complaints. Also, you said that they announced that PS would be getting exclusives, implying that we had our time to buy PS's instead. What about people who play on their 360's, who arent buying the next gen consoles? They still have to switch from 360 to ps3. Casuals get screwed over regardless. Its a broken point youre making. Just my insight.

I never said they weren't in the right place to complain about Destiny. I simply said I don't feel sorry for them. Exclusive content deals happen on all consoles all the time. You don't like it? Then don't buy the game. Companies only do this because it generates money. If it didn't, they would stop. And Destiny is primarily a current gen title. You were never going to get the best experience on Last Gen hardware. Either upgrade, or don't bitch.

Someones pissed off that their opinion isnt agreed with. All these flavors, and you chose salty?
-
I'm not pissed off at all. I'm merely pointing out the facts. Developers and publishers regularly give exclusive content deals to different consoles. If people don't like it, fine. Don't buy the DLC and let your money speak for itself. Don't come to a forum and whine and act like Bungie or Sony is the personification of corporate greed and that they've done something totally unheard of.
-
You called me a bitch, and therefore sounded pissed off. I realize that Bungie and Sony have a deal, and Im ok with that. Playstation gets some early exclusives? Okay, who cares. Theres a place that they have to draw the line though. Playstation's exclusives are getting excessive, and the right to complain is then justified. Money does speak for itself, and when Xbox players have to switch consoles to play extra content, its too extreme of a gap to be "okay" with. When playstation gets all this extra stuff for free vs us paying for it (a year later, even worse), it becomes unfair to a degree worth bitching about.
-
I didn't call you a bitch. I said you were bitching. As in, whining. Which you are. The PS exclusive content, including the fact that the DLC would also have it, has been known about since E3 2014. No one was forced to purchase an Xbox console or Destiny. And it's no more excessive than other exclusive deals done with other games.

Your comment said "or dont bitch", i read it as "or dont, bitch". My mistake. I never said people were forced to buy an xbox or destiny, I said that people buying destiny who have a 360, shouldnt have to switch to a ps3 or upgrade to a ps4 just to enjoy the extra content. Playstation gets free content, that xbox has to pay for, not to mention that we get it in a year. That IS excessive, regardless of if other games do the same thing. Im against exclusive content across the board. Its bad enough that xbox players cant enjoy God of War and Killzone, and that playstation players cant enjoy Halo or Gears of War. Its stupid, money needs to come second compared to content. Screwing over a large group of people because they want more money? Capitalism (corporatism to be exact) doesnt need to be this extreme. People > money.

You aren't paying for it and waiting a year for all of what you have paid for though. No where near the same

No one will be playing this when the strike becomes available for xbox. I don't care in the slightest. I get nothing from the strikes anyway. It's unlikely I'll buy the DLC anyway as I'm still upset that I seem to have been sold an incomplete game anyway. The DLC is supposed to enhance the experience not fill in the story that was missing but should have been there in the first place. Looks like my cash will go to halo
-
If you buy the DLC on Xbox, you're paying for what's being offered then. You're not paying for the extra strike or extra map and then being forced to wait on it. And what MS did was worse. They took a popular multiplat franchise, and made it a timed exclusive.

[i]Nobody cares about Tomb Raider.[/i]
-
Exactly
-
Plenty of people care about Tomb Raider, or did you miss the absolute shit storm that followed the announcement?
-
[i]I think a lot of people did...[/i]
-
Also tombraider is only exclusive for a little while the ps4 destiny exclusives is a full year - this whole exclusive thing it really pissing me off now
-
The exact time frame for how long Tomb Raider will be exclusive for the X1 hasn't been announced yet. Also, the 'full year' was based on an Amazon listing that was removed. As far as we know, the PS exclusive will come to the X1 sometime in 2015, and that's all we know.
-
Fall 2015, not just sometime in 2015. It's a year.
-
No. The 'Fall 2015' rumor was based on an Amazon posting that has since been removed. There is no official date aside from sometime in 2015.

Very bottom of the page.

Agreed.
